Can walking help you lose weight?

Slow walking cannot lose weight, but it can help digestion.

"Chinese Prescriptions for Nourishment Pillow" records: Eating and walking for hundreds of steps will be of great benefit to people. It is said that walking slowly after eating can help promote gastrointestinal motility, secretion of gastrointestinal digestive juices and digestion and absorption of food, which is beneficial to human health.

However, do not walk immediately after eating, do not walk quickly, and do not engage in strenuous exercise, otherwise it will have adverse effects on your health. Within half an hour after a meal, the stomach becomes very heavy from taking in the food. Participating in exercise at this time (even light exercise such as walking) will cause the stomach to suffer from "turbulence", which will affect the digestive function and even cause stomach problems in the long run.

Therefore, it is best for the elderly to sit for half an hour after eating, and then go out to engage in light activities such as slow walking and walking.
